As systems become more complex, their realization increasingly requires a modern engineering enterprise, characterized by geographically dispersed, dynamic, and multicultural organizations. In this context, the traditional project and program management concepts must be re-examined and integrated with systems engineering. At the strategic level, this results in a new discipline called systems engineering management, which combines the scientific, engineering, and managerial skills needed to transform systems engineering processes into system solutions.
The four-course Graduate Certificate in Systems Engineering Management introduces the leadership, interpersonal, financial, organizational, and systems integration skills necessary to provide project teams with better strategic focus and enhanced productivity. With a common systems engineering process serving as a framework, courses in project management, costing and acquisition, decision and risk analysis, and organizational systems are integrated to form this certificate that bridges engineering, management and systems integration.

If you're a professional with a bachelor's degree, you can earn a graduate certificate or a masters degree in an outstanding System Engineering Management program delivered by the same superior faculty who teach in conventional settings. You receive the finest professional education using rich Internet features -- threaded discussions, chat, bulletin boards, e-mail, file sharing, whiteboards, and workgroups for in-depth participation. You also have online library privileges, with instant search and retrieval of important databases.
Note: The Systems Design and Operational Effectiveness (SDOE) Executive Education Program offers face-to-face one-week courses in modular format, after which students must complete a ten week homework assignment to fulfill the course requirements. Modular courses, labeled as SDOE, may be substituted for online courses at the choice of the candidate.
